The History of the
Project 
Directions to the
Site
The Leach Park Project was designed by a community group led by artist Stuart Morris of Mt. Vernon, Iowa and Quad City Arts.    The site interprets the river's industry through a stainless steel railing which meanders down the centerof the 15 steps on the levee which is inspired by the Lock & Dam system.

Two large tow boat propellers will be used to create a fountain at the base of the steps surrounded by a decorative iron fence with text symbolizing the river industry.
